I’ve looked through some of the web UIs and apps and found that I could hide NSFW posts without signing in, but so far I haven’t found one that allows for hiding bot posts. Is that not possible at the moment?

I still haven’t decided which UI or app to settle on, hence not signing in, and it’s kind of revealing how many bot posts there are when viewing some Lemmy instances this way. 😅

    a class=“person-listing d-inline-flex align-items-baseline text-info” title=“@bOt” href=“/u/bOt”…/a

    I can probably modify the script to block these bots, because they all have the same username. I would just look for the title and remove the posts that equal @bOt.

    This might be a better task for the dev-team, because my method is definitely a work-around. There could already be an open issue for it on the github. I think we agree that blocking bots should be built into the API.
